Marigold - Eskimo
The Marigold Eskimo, 'Tagetes erecta', is new and unique. Eskimo is a white marigold with large, creamy white, double carnation type blooms that are simply stunning. The beautiful blooms are located at knee height on top of the plant. The nice dark green foliage sets off the white flower color. The Eskimo Marigold begins to bloom in late spring and continues to bloom until first frost. Marigolds prefers rich organic soils. The soil needs to be well drained and not soggy. Pinch off faded flowers to encourage more blooms. Plant in the spring after average last day of frost. Eskimo Marigolds are excellent for edging, in pots and containers and as a ground cover. ... more information
